I found out info from a reliable source afriend who works at the US Embassy, that one of the members of Hawkwind ( Dave Brock ) US work visa was denied. I noticed from various websites (http://goo.gl/7J3Fs) that their is speculation that is the reason that he canceled the tour. Which now seems to be confirmed. PEOPLE DO THE MATH! Why are the UK dates not canceled? Fans, people & reporters need to look up the real story? The truth will soon be revealed.

More anti Brock bollocks.

That was his first post EVER...hmm. Tells me something right there. But I'm objective, so Itried to "look up the real story," but the "various websites" link just directs you to the Wikipedia page for Hawkwind.

Sorry, I'm not biting at this point. I guess I'll have to wait for the truth to be revealed.

Earlier this week, I saw that a list of US tour dates for the fall of 2014 were posted on Nik Turner's Facebook page. The next day they were gone. I didn't copy them all down, but I remember that it had Nik & Hedersleben playing the Middle East club in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Sept 12 (same venue where I saw him last October). No mention of Nik on the Middle East web site - they show some other act playing on that day.

I'm not taking sides in the Hawkwind/Nik battle, but I hope that these dates are real. Loved hearing classics like "Orgone Accumulator" live last fall.
